Glasses wearers? Help!

Any glasses wearers about?

Are there any techniques to get this little rubber thing back on to my son's glasses?

I've tried twisting it, pulling it, but all I do is move the metal wire which is at risk of snapping.

Help!

has it got a hole in the back of it? Maybe try putting one end on then stretch it over the other side? Or it might need a completely new pad if the plastic bit that's still attached to the frames is screwed on.

Can you get to an opticians? That happened to mine and Specsavers fixed it easily.

Think you need a new nosepad. Take it to opticians, they can do it in minutes and probably free

Hi, I'm an optician. The nose pad is broken, if you take it in they can put a new one in, it only takes a few minutes.
